Starting cf parts again

turboguy · 04-26-2007, 06:57 PM

Well, After almost two years, I've finally gotten ahold of a fair amount of carbon fiber. If I have a good interest in any particular part, I can do it for you guys. So, what's of interest right now?

canadam · 04-26-2007, 07:05 PM

Is it possible to make an OEM trunklid any cheaper than they are currently available?

turboguy · 04-26-2007, 07:52 PM

I'm awesome Adam, with enough demand, I can do anything!!!

You know that! Remember the ttops?

skillzo1 · 04-26-2007, 07:55 PM

I know this is a little of topic...but weren't you gunna make your own rev 6 kit? I'd want to see a cheaper kit.

turboguy · 04-26-2007, 08:03 PM

I just gave up on the Rev6 style kits. The problem comes in the manufacturing. Anything I have come up with design style of the rev6 have been more expensive to produce. The unfortunate part is I just don't have the connections for metal fab on a larger scale.

Hiighboost2 · 04-26-2007, 09:00 PM

Id be interested in the trunk lid.

PearlJammzz · 04-26-2007, 09:03 PM

Any body panels, 94+ wing and trunk lid, turbo-style engine lid. Those would be the easiest.

I'd like to see a CF dash, but that's me just dreamin. Also flat underbody panels and rear diffuser. Again, that's dreamin, lol.

Affordable 94+ wing and trunk lid would be PERFECT.

PHOENIX · 04-26-2007, 09:36 PM

I think a lot of people would love to see some CF side mouldings. Not really a weight saver, but would look really good.

doctreetop · 04-26-2007, 09:58 PM

CF trunk lid!

Also sent you a PM.

PETC · 04-26-2007, 10:02 PM

I might be interested in a CF turbo style engine lid.

baktasht · 04-26-2007, 10:16 PM

* CF center trim piece (the piece that goes around the stereo and AC vents)

* CF Trim piece that goes wraps under the gauge cluster and the far left AC vent

* CF steering column cover (two pieces, top/bottom)

* CF windshield wiper shroud

* CF triple gauge holder that mounts on top of the dash

* CF OEM style shifter surround

* CF center console (arm rest thingy)

* CF radiator cooling plate

* CF TRD style rear strut tower bar

* CF dome light cover

* CF door sills

PHOENIX · 04-26-2007, 10:25 PM

ModifiedDude · 04-27-2007, 12:30 AM

More styles of vented hoods! - Something similar to the NSX-R

94+ Taillight center piece

Aeroware, Greddy, Bomex, style lips

Shifter Surround

Door panel inserts

carbon gauge pod for the open din slot

PearlJammzz · 04-27-2007, 12:37 AM

Oh and someone should RE DO That Ferrari CF Engine Lid

NIXmx · 04-27-2007, 01:21 AM

CF lips! I love the way they look on Civics. It looks really nice with a CF hood.

Headlight covers?? To match a CF hood. I've seen them once and thought it was a great idea.

jlantz85 · 04-27-2007, 01:36 AM

i would definitly 100% buy a cf center peice for the TRD wing
i would also buy cf interior peices, like all the plastic on the dash and where its either cloth/leather on the door... even if they were just overlays, dont matter

Russell the Love Muscle · 04-27-2007, 01:37 AM

jlantz85 · 04-27-2007, 01:38 AM

you could also do small engine bay/frunk peices, like the cover for the fuse boxes, cc cable junction, etc

Dan S · 04-27-2007, 04:04 PM

door sills, panels that are next to the engine lid, rear window trim (mk1 and mk2)
